In April, 2010, Douglas came under fire from the Tea Party
movement for a phone call he made to Freedomworks in which he left
an inflammatory voice mail. A day later GEICO dropped him from the
new "shocking news" series of internet commercials that were in
post-production. This led to some debate in the voice over community
about whether announcers were public figures. Douglas responded by
producing a mock Tea Party PSA for YouTube that was subsequently
broadcast on Joy Behar's HLN show with Douglas as a guest.In
addition to his commercial and video game voice over work, he also
does many voice overs for the non-profit progressive research and
information center Media Matters for America.
